Hi guys! I will admit that it has been some time since I last updated this story, but I am back with another chapter!
My apologies in advance for those who may find this chapter too short; I have a very busy and hectic schedule at the moment.
As usual, I do not own anything mentioned in this story, they all belong to their own respective companies.
And with that, let us begin!
Please enjoy the chapter!
Chapter 2: I'm Getting A Gift For Him, Her, Or It
"Daisy, for this year's Friendship Festival, you have been assigned to pick a gift for… you have got to be kidding me…"
Daisy was at her house looking at the email she had received, telling her the recipient of a gift.
"Well, no point in sitting here and worrying myself out; better get straight to work!" Daisy said in a determined voice.
She then slammed down the screen of her laptop, grabbed the bag next to her, and ran out of her house.
"I just hope that the king likes my gift, I mean after all he is a ghost, he has to, right?"
Meanwhile, at Princess Peach's castle…
"Well, it should be rather interesting; this year I have to pick out a gift for Dry Bones, but I have not interacted much with him this year, I wonder if he would appreciate, let alone accept, my gift?" Peach thought to herself.
After finishing her orange juice, she then went to do the dishes, all the while wondering what would be a suitable gift for her bony, skeleton figured recipient.
"Please let it me anyone but Toadette," a pink dinosaur prayed hard as she clicked on the mouse.
She opened her eyes to read the contents of the letter.
"Birdo, for this year's Friendship Festival you have been assigned to pick a gift for… oh thank goodness, I know just what to get for my girl pal," Birdo heaved a sigh of relief.
At Toadette's house, the owner was busy multitasking, if you consider drinking milk directly from a carton, eating cereal, checking her email and listening to the news from the television all at one go multitasking.
"Let me see who will be my lucky recipient this year!" Toadette responded cheerfully, making air quotes with her hands when she said the word "lucky".
"Toadette, for this year's Friendship Festival, you have been assigned to pick a gift for… Mario," the pink Toad read from her computer.
After stuffing more cereal into her mouth, Toadette decided to think of the best gift she could get for her recipient, while drinking milk and listening to the morning news still.
In the house of another two brothers…
"You have got to be freaking kidding me!"
The thinner brother, got off the couch, and headed towards his older brother's room, where he was reading his email.
"Dude, what was all that for?" Waluigi asked.
"How could my luck be so terrible that I have to get a gift for this stupid girl?!" Wario shouted.
"Oh come on, I am way worse than you, did you not forget who I said I have to get a gift for?" Waluigi responded.
"Read the damn email and maybe you will understand!" Wario insisted.
"Wario, for this year's Friendship Festival, you have to get a gift for… oh… yeah she really is going to be a tough one for anybody…" Waluigi admitted when he read the letter.
At another dinosaur's house, a green figure was reading his email calmly, yet energetically.
"Yoshi, for this year's Friendship Festival, you have to get a gift for… hmmm… looks like I may have to do some deep thinking if I wish to figure out an appropriate gift for this little fella…" the green dinosaur read out aloud.
While the citizens of Mushroom Kingdom were busy finding out who they were going to pick out a gift for, and also deciding the gift itself, things were also happening in Bowser's castle.
"Damn this stupid event! I hate when events like this happen! I hate when my enemies are happy and celebrating!" Bowser roared.
Bowser Junior, who was in the same room as him, nodded his head in agreement.
"I know dad, it sucks," Bowser Junior agreed. "And it stinks even more because on this day almost everyone else in Mushroom Kingdom gets to have a good time and get a free gift from somebody."
"And if we want to be in on the action, we have to go along with them, which means we can't do anything villainous at the event if we want to join in the fun, which really annoys me!" Bowser yelled out in anger, causing the whole castle to shake.
As the vibrations in the castle slowly settled down, a smirk appeared across Bowser Junior's face.
"Which leaves us with only one option," Bowser Junior said. "Dad, how would you like to join me in wreaking havoc in this year's Friendship Festival, and causing all hell to break loose tomorrow?"
And that is all for the second chapter; like I said in the beginning, it is a short chapter, quite unfortunately.
